Be sure to close the domes if you opened them so you can capture the steam.

Open the fire pit doors and pan left and pick up the EMPTY SPADE leaning on the side of the heliolite bin.

Using the EMPTY SPADE, shovel the heliolites into the fire pit till Thomas says it’s full for now. (5 scoops in each)

Go forward towards the instrument platform and look at the chest on the left. Use LEO MEDALLION on the chest to open.

Good Day Only – Get a WATER DISK, AIR DISK and FIRE DISK in the chest.

Bad Day Only – There is nothing in the chest and you need to dig through the heliolites with your hands till you find a sack. In the sack is a WATER DISK, AIR DISK and FIRE DISK.

Turn to the panel to the right of the chest and insert the VIRGO MEDALLION in the center.

Insert the WATER DISK, AIR DISK and FIRE DISK in their matching slots around the VIRGO MEDALLION.
